There are many
options for smart light switch solution.
Dave picked the Lutron Caséta Wireless in-wall dimmer smart light switch
for our home. Several things he looks
for while researching, reliability, good quality, and multiple connecting &
controlling options.
The Lutron Caséta Wireless in-wall dimmer smart light switch can be controlled through their app
on any smart phone / devices. It is
compatible with Google Home, Amazon Alexa, and Apple Homekit. So, controlling the lights can be as easy as
a voice of command! This dimmer light switch works with any dim-able light, including LED. This project takes about an hour. Very easy installation.
So, why a smart light switch? Well, one usage is so you
don't have to get up from the couch to control the lighting using voice command
feature.
Another reason is
the ability of controlling the light remotely.
This is especially helpful when we need to double check if we turned off
the light before leaving home. Also, the
away mode is helpful when you want to have the light turn on and off
automatically while you are not home.
Another feature is
the auto detection of your phone when you come home. The light would turn on automatically. That way, you don't have to find the switch!
This project takes about an hour. Very easy installation. Here is a step by
step video of the installation process of the smart light switch, also, set-up
for the smart phone app.
